Wrapping Gifts

I. love. wrapping. gifts. Ever since I was little, I loved taking the time to make sure all of my gifts were wrapped to perfection. Personally, I feel like the way I wrap my gifts are also part of the present. I just love the pretty wrapping paper, festive ribbons, and creative ways to make it your own. Needless to say, I have wrapped all of my gifts I have purchased so far (as shown above).

Every year, I try to have a theme. Last year it was mainly woodland creature themed (you know, owls, foxes, deer, etc - just Christmas-fied) and this year, I stuck to, you guessed it, PLAID. Totally obsessed with plaid. I have always loved using kraft paper as wrapping paper but my husband introduced me to contractor paper this year and it is way more budget friendly! Not to mention we used it for our snail Halloween costume :)

Love that wine tag at the end! I am the opposite of you in that I grew up with mostly unwrapped gifts or reused gift bags. But maybe this is the year I try to branch out. It is really beautiful to have thoughtful wrapping. Jenn
